looking for a jack-enabled "guitar tuner"

[Atte]

Hi

I work quite a lot with music made from samples. To ease the process of
tuning samples, I thought "there might be a good linux tuning software
outthere", but couldn't really find any, maybe because I don't know what
to type in google :-)

I found http://linux-sound.org/guitar.html and also looked at fmit and
tuneit, but all seem old and a quick build of the two most interesting
apps, fmit and gtkguitune, failed (we can dig later if those are
recommended apps).

So I'm looking for a recommendation: Which jack-enabled software could
help me tune samples? If it doesn't get confused when the sample
contains more notes, like a chord it would be great!

NB: Sorry if I overlooked something obvious, I never worked with
software of this type before...

I'm not sure about samples, but if it's a guitar tuner you're after,
then you could try the one built into rakarrack. It works quite well
for electric guitar, and not so well for electro-acoustic (but the
same is true for my hardware tuner). It will probably get confused if
pushed too hard...

Hi

Don't know if I get you right, but Sonic Visualiser comes in mind.
 http://www.sonicvisualiser.org/

or the CLAM network
 http://clam-project.org/index.html

more simple and also a bit old, but use full  qjacktuner

I love fmit. Great tuner app. I've used it to impress non-Linux-using guitar players and studio engineers too.

Oi
Rakarrack can help you with guitar tuner and has too a lot of guitar effects.

It indeed looks like the one to use.

However I get these errors when trying to make the latest (0.97.7) under
arch linus, any ideas what I do wrong or need to install/upgrade/change?

I commented out the offending line (seems to be some error catching) and
fmit build and works fine, it seems...

Nice program, btw, just what I was looking for. Doesn't like chords
though :-)
